SLU alumni can most commonly be found in clinical care, the health care services industry, and the financial services industry, though they are employed throughout a wide range of sectors. The majority of SLU alumni wind up in the health care industry. SLU graduates in the telecommunications industry are hard pressed to find, with less than two percent of former students taking up work in this field. Those with an education from SLU earn an average of $63K.
SLU grads who become Senior Systems Administrators garner financial rewards beyond any other job type for this group — these alumni rake in an average about $91K annually. However, Strategic Planning Managers and Trucking and Transportation Fleet Dispatchers also rank as top-earners (bringing in around $71K and approximately $56K, respectively). Financial Analysts face rather mediocre compensation — average salaries are actually the lowest at $50K.
St. Louis, Mo. is filled with SLU grads. SLU grads also flock to Atlanta, Ga., which is home to salaries significantly above average (median pay is $88K). On the other end, SLU grads flock to New York, N.Y., which actually offers the weakest median salary of $48K. In addition, grads flock to Chicago, Ill. as well as Denver, Colo.
Financial compensation is highest for SLU grads with a medical degree (average earnings climb to $127K per year). A Bachelor of Science in Business & Marketing commands less pay, and these degree-holders face median pay of $44K.
Former Billikens with Budget Management experience garner salaries that are 35 percent more than other grads' salaries. Around a tenth of SLU grads wind up using Microsoft Excel at their job, which is one of the most common skills among alumni. Demonstrated ability in Microsoft Office, Financial Analysis, and Project Management rank among leading skills as well.
A lucky minority (about two-fifths of alumni) are fortunate enough to be compensated for vacation while just one in four survey participants get sick time. A large number of alumni take advantage of a 401(k) plan. Health benefits extend to a large number of survey participants, and a fair number of alums also receive dental coverage. Saint Louis University grads are also lucky enough to receive a casual working environment, life insurance, a company-subsidized cell phone, and tuition reimbursement.
Compensation averages $63K for Fordham University alumni, making their earnings most comparable to SLU grads. Loyola University-Chicago, Howard University, and Catholic University of America are also similar to SLU.

By LACIE PIERSON, Jul 25, 2016 – HERALD DISPATCH
HUNTINGTON – The recent restructuring of two colleges at Marshall University was designed to strengthen both colleges and create a more rounded experience for students, according to university officials.
In the past month, university officials announced the reorganization of Marshall's College of Science as well as the restructuring of some departments in the Joan C. Edwards School of Medicine. Both announcements came a few months after administrators moved Marshall's nationally renowned forensic science graduate program from the medical school, where it was first established in the mid-1990s, to the College of Science, where it's being integrated with the university's undergraduate digital forensic science and criminal justice programs.
Leaders of both schools described the reorganization as creating better opportunities for collaboration between departments and cultivating comprehensive interdisciplinary research efforts as well as curricular partnerships.
"We saw the synergy there that the combination of these programs could create something new and powerful, not only for Marshall, but for students interested in those fields," said Chuck Somerville, dean of the College of Science. "It's a really interesting overlap of things we can do to strengthen all of those programs at the same time."
The changes to the College of Science were effective July 1 and included the restructuring of nine academic departments in the college into four schools: The School of Biological and Environmental Sciences, the School of Physical Sciences, the School of Mathematics and Applied Informatics, and the School of Forensic and Criminal Justice Sciences, according to a news release from the university.
During the spring 2016 semester, which ended in May, there were 1,420 students enrolled in the majors affected by the restructuring, but that number doesn't include the students who took courses within the College of Science as a part of electives for other non-science majors, Somerville said. Overall, he said there were approximately 10,000 enrollments each year in service courses, which are courses that provide support for other majors in the university outside of the college in question.
In each of the new schools, college faculty and staff bring applied, real world experience together with advanced theoreticians, Somerville said.
He gave the example of the new Mathematics and Applied Informatics school.
"We have people who are studying the underlying mathematics of informatics as well as people who are writing commercial software," he said. "Students can get the benefit of both perspectives and learn both the most advanced science of the field as well as some of the things that it takes to succeed in the market … By having both basic and applied researchers working together, we broaden the scope of students that we can attract to Marshall, and we also broaden the opportunities for students who come here and may not yet know if they want to pursue a higher degree or go directly into the workforce."
At the medical school, the exit of the forensic science program led to the restructuring of the school's departments of biochemistry, microbiology, anatomy, pharmacology, physiology, toxicology and animal resources, which resulted in the formation of one biomedical sciences department.
That department is being led by Dr. Gary O. Rankin, who was promoted to vice dean for basic sciences and chairman of the department of biomedical sciences.
The College of Science has 126 faculty and staff in the College of Science, and no employees have been laid off as a result of the restructuring, Somerville said. Somerville did note the responsibilities of four positions that became vacant this year were absorbed by existing faculty and staff in the reorganization process.
The restructuring of the programs changes would be cost neutral to the university and students, said Gayle Ormiston, Marshall's provost and senior vice president of academic affairs.
Talks of moving the forensic program into the College of Science had taken place for years, but it was the completion of an academic portfolio review of all academic programs at Marshall that helped administrators develop the road map to make it happen, Ormiston said.
The move is also part of an effort to create a more robust undergraduate offering in forensic science as well as offer more slots in the graduate forensic science program, which is one of the most sought after programs of its kind in the United States, Somerville said.
Marshall's graduate forensic science program was the seventh such program of its kind when it was established in 1994, and its graduates routinely rank No. 1 in the country for its students receiving the highest overall test scores compared to other graduate programs participating in the Forensic Science Assessment Test, a national assessment test offered each year by the American Board of Criminalistics.
In 2015, Marshall Forensic Science graduates ranked No. 1 in the country on the assessment test for the sixth time in the last nine years.
The program originally was established in the medical school as Dr. Terry Fenger, founding director of the program, was a faculty member in the school at the time.
Somerville said he hoped the restructuring also would provide the faculty and facilities support needed to allow the university to accept more students into the graduate program, which currently accepts 20 students each year. He said he hoped to bring that number up to 25 students in the next two or three years without creating an undue burden on faculty or students.

Powell - Suicide bombings diminish Arafat's power
JERUSALEM -- A suicide bomber set off an explosion at a busy intersection in northern Israel on Sunday, failing to kill anyone other than himself but intensifying American and Israeli pressure on Yasser Arafat.
Secretary of State Colin Powell said a string of recent bombings are destroying Arafat's "authority and credibilit."
The United States and Israel have demanded Arafat do more to stop terrorists; the Palestinian leader says he is cracking down on them and that 180 have been arrested. So long as the terrorism continues, Israel says its incursions into Palestinian territory are necessary.
In the West Bank Sunday, Israeli soldiers killed five Palestinians and detained 30 suspected militants in raids on two villages.
American diplomatic efforts hit a rough patch as peace envoy Anthony Zinni told Israeli and Palestinian security officials that if they didn't make real progress in the next 48 hours, he would consider leaving the region.
Zinni reportedly stood up and left the peace talks between the two sides after issuing his ultimatum, an Israeli said.
Prime Minister Ariel Sharon warned after the botched bombing in the northern port city of Haifa that Israeli strikes on the Palestinian territories were likely to intensify.
The Haifa bombing, which killed the attacker and slightly injured 11 bystanders, came a week after another suicide bomber detonated himself on a bus there, killing 15.

The Riad Anjar is a lovely, peaceful, friendly place -- well decorated, comfortable, and above all with staff who do everything to make your stay a relaxing and pleasant one.
It's very centrally located, just a couple of minutes' walk from the chaos of the souks and the main square, but the atmosphere is serene once you are inside the riad.
The owner, Zahra, is friendly and adaptable, giving us an extra room for free as she had one available, and full of useful info about Marrakesh; the cook is excellent, and made us some delicious Moroccan specialities including a lamb tagine with quince and apricot.
What makes this riad particularly stand out, however, is the manager, Noureddine. He was very helpful and attentive. We felt that he really wanted to ensure that we had the best possible time in the city, and he did just that.
- Reservation Options:
- TripAdvisor is proud to partner with Expedia, Hotels.com, Orbitz, Booking.com, Odigeo, Priceline and Travelocity so you can book your Riad Anjar reservations with confidence. We help millions of travelers each month to find the perfect hotel for both vacation and business trips, always with the best discounts and special offers.

Kirk Douglas and Pier Angeli dated from July, 1952 to May, 1953.
According to Kirk Douglas' autobiography, he and Angeli were engaged in the 1950s after meeting on the set of the film The Story of Three Loves (1953).
Highly recommended the first autobiography Douglas wrote "The Ragman´s son", chapters of inside information about his relationship with Pier. Great stuff!:)

March 02, 2016
Russia's prosecutor has called for a 23-year prison term for Ukrainian pilot Nadia Savchenko, who has been accused by Russian authorities of involvement in the deaths of two Russian journalists in eastern Ukraine.
The call came as closing arguments in the trial began on March 2. A verdict is expected soon after closing arguments are completed.
Savchenko was fighting in a volunteer battalion against Russia-backed separatists in eastern Ukraine when she was captured in June 2014.
She has accused the separatists of kidnapping her and taking her into Russia where she was jailed and charged.
Kyiv says the charges against her are trumped up and that she should be treated as a prisoner of war.
Savchenko has been refusing food while on trial in Russia and has threatened to go on full hunger strike – including a refusal to drink -- unless she is returned to Ukraine within 10 days of the verdict.

I am trying to export my MySQL db to Excel. I wrote a PHP script to format a txt file as:
$res = mysql_query("select Data1, Data2 FROM my Table");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res)) {
// Remove tabs chars
$row["Data1"] = str_replace("\t","", $row["Data1"]);
$row["Data2"] = str_replace("\t","", $row["Data2"]);
// Output to file
echo "\"" . $row["Data1"] . "\" \t \"" . $row["Data2"] . "\"\n";
I copy the output and save it as a txt file, which I then import to Excel using "tab" as the delimiter.
However, since both
Data1 and
Data2 fields contain newlines chars it seems like Excel treats it like a new cell instead of creating a new line in the current cell.
Anyway I can import the file so both fields will have new lines and still be on one cell?
EDIT: Even when trying to import this simple text file:
Excel creates a row with two columns: "hello" , "bye" - and then a new row with "now"

Access DVD © is a Windows computer program used to catalog your movie collection. It makes adding, finding, sorting, and playing movies faster and easier than ever. Access DVD has lot's of great features. It can even retrieve detailed movie information from FreeMovieDatabase.org. Access DVD searches for the following information: Year, Genre, MPAA Rating, Color, User Rating, Running Time, Release Date, Sound, Country, Plot, Director, Writer, Cast, and Aspect Ratio*. With Access DVD 2.0, the bar has been raised for this category of software. Try it today and see for yourself.
Play movies directly with your favorite player.
Play movies directly with Windows Media Player, Media Player Classic, Cyberlink PowerDVD, and VLC Media player.
Advanced playback options with VLC Media Player.
• Menu skipping
• Full screen
Works with numerous video file types.
Access DVD works with file extensions .IFO and .VOB which represent video files contained in valid DVD folders. An example of a valid DVD folder is:
New in Version 2.0, Access DVD now works with numerous other file types in addition to DVD folders. It now works with mkv, m2ts, mpg, avi, wmv, mp4, and flv.
Catalog DVDs on your hard drive(s) and on disc.
Access DVD can manage all your movies whether on DVD, Bluray, VHS, or your hard drive.
Excellent for large displays (Quad-HD 2160p) and TVs, or HTPC's.
• Large thumbnail images in Thumbnails View with support for sizes up to 512 x 512 pixels. Access DVD is ready to take full advantage of future Quad-HD 2160p displays.
• State-of-the-art toolbar icons, up to 128 x 128 pixels when in "Jumbo Mode".
Works with multiple drives and folders.
Let's say you have 3 hard drives on your computer, and each hard drive contains movies. Access DVD can add movies from all 3 drives to your database/collection so they can be viewed and managed in one convenient list.
Search, sort, and filter your movies.
Find the movie you're looking for quickly and easily. With advanced search capability, results will display as you type your search (or after you press Enter). Search results will include any movies containing the sequence of characters you specify in your search, no matter where in the movie title that sequence is. Seaches are also not case sensitive.
Export to CSV and HTM formats.
Databases can be exported to both Comma Separated Value, and valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional formats. This makes it easy to share your DVD Video collection.
Backup and restore your database.
Click "Save As", from the "File" menu to save your database. Double-click the saved file, or click "Open" from the file menu to open your saved database.
Automatically scan and look for changes.
If you remove a movie, or add a new one, or rename some movies, with a single click you can scan through all drives and directories in your database and just like magic, your database will be up to date.
Rename numerous images at once.
The way that Access DVD knows which images belong to each movie is if the image file name matches the movie title. If you download pictures from the internet for a particular movie, the filenames will probably not be correct for use with Access DVD. So Access DVD makes it easy to name as many movies as you have all at once. Simple choose a movie, and then browse and select all the images for that movie, and click "rename images". You can then cycle back and forth through all your pictures for a given movie.
User-friendly design.
You will be able to maximize usability to its full potential with the same familiar menu and toolbar structure that has been around for years, but now with bigger and nicer icons.
New in 2.0, in addition to the regular menu and toolbars, Access DVD now has a Windows 7 Ribbon. You can easily choose which one to use.
Compatible with Windows 7 and Windows Vista. Note: Make sure your copy of Windows is up to date to ensure the best compatibility, stability, and performance. Microsoft .Net Framework 4.0 Client Profile will need to be installed.

I first read the book many years ago and fell in love with it. Then I fell in love with the work of Paul Gaugin of whom the book is a fictional biography. Yeah, yeah, there's the romanticism involved, i.e., a curator told me Gaugin apparently died of syphillus (though I'd read before that he died of heart failure). But Charles Strickland/Paul Gaugin represent the height of individualism: leave the comfortable behind for the unknown even though you don't know exactly what you're pursuing.
George Sanders, with whom I wasn't familiar, played Strickland. I thought he portrayed the role very well. He even laughed at the right places! (And, interestingly, Sanders seemed to have a little of the Strickland/Gaugin in his heart, if you read of his suicide. But I'll let you do that yourself.).
Herbert Marshall played Geoffery Wolfe, the Maughm-like character. I recognized him because he played Maughm in the 1946 production of "The Razor's Edge," another stellar Maugham novel.
The other characters were cast well for the roles described in the novel, especially Steven Geray as Dirk Strove--as accurate as any casting director could have been with Strove's description in the book.
Of course, there is only so much one can do with a film, and the novel is invariably better than the movie that way, but this one impressed me.
There are two versions of the film on the DVD, one as released in the theatre, and the other black and white. If you're anticipating a colorized version of the B&W print, you'll be disappointed. The theatrical release wasn't "color" like I would expect it today. But had it been, I wouldn't have been interested in it. (And I may yet watch the B&W.Read more ›

lip gloss
24/7 Lilac: NYC City Proof Extended Wear Lip Gloss
24/7 Lilac NYC Up To 8HR City Proof Lip Gloss ($2.77) is an extended wear gloss in a pretty berry color with a hint of purple. It has a slight shimmer to it but not enough to make it feel gritty or look frosty.

Yes to Coconut Hydrate & Restore Cooling Lip Oil ($4.99) is a 99% natural, paraben free moisturizing lip balm. It contains various hydrating oils, including coconut, plus eucalyptus for a cooling effect.

It's a scene out of a Tyler Perry movie.
The love is still mighty between Simon Cowell and Paula Abdul.
Even though Cowell fired Paula from her judge post on X Factor (along with fellow judges Steve Jones and Nicole Scherzinger), he's assured the public of his bond with his former American Idol cohort.
"You do develop friendships with the people you work with and Paula, in particular, is a very close friend and I expect to be working with her on another project in the near future."
No word yet on what project they will work on together or if the rumors of Mariah Carey joining X Factor are true.

Toronto, Ontario – Humber College has officially opened the Humber Learning Resource Commons (LRC) at its North Campus.
The 264,000 square foot student learning and services hub is Humber's new main entrance and a gateway to the college's industry-standard labs and classrooms. It is also Humber's largest construction project to date, and a collaboration with the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities and Infrastructure Ontario.
"The Learning Resource Commons is a significant milestone for Humber because it exemplifies our commitment to put our students and their success at the heart of everything we do. From the first day of planning to the last day of construction, student needs were of primary importance as this building came to fruition," says Chris Whitaker, Humber president and CEO. "Thanks to the generous support of the Ontario government, we are able to provide students with easier access to the services that will help make their Humber experience positive and productive."
The building features a dramatic six-storey staircase, ground-floor atrium and gallery. In addition to a new library and learning commons that provides much needed study and social space, students also have a more streamlined access to centralized services such as academic and career advising, registration, health, accessibility and counseling, student life and writing and math support, among many others.
"The LRC is exactly what students need. It is welcoming and there's lots of space to study and relax with friends," says Jose Cardoso, a student in Humber's Advertising, Marketing and Communications postgraduate program. "More importantly, the building is a one-stop shop for services which we can access without having to navigate the entire campus. That's something that every student will appreciate."
The Learning Resource Commons is built to LEED Silver standards. The building's many sustainability measures include a green roof, solar panels, energy-efficient lighting and HVAC systems and designated carpool spots.
"I am so pleased that the Learning Resource Commons at Humber College is now open," said the Honourable Reza Moridi, Minister of Training, Colleges and Universities. "Our government is proud to support this exciting milestone, which will give students the space they need to study, learn and access frontline services under one roof."

TerraNoble Reserva Carmenere 2009
Carmenere from Chile, South America
Winemaker's Notes
This Carmenere has a very attractive red-violet color with blue tones. In this wine you find ripe fig, black and red berriers mixed with chocolate notes. On the palate, an intense fruity sensation comes up with some coffee notes. It is well structured, with smoth and silky tannins.
Ideal for lamb or spicy cuisine.
Blend: 95% Carmenere, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon
Critical Acclaim
Wine Enthusiast - "Dense, dark and ripe on the bouquet, with coconut, mint, earth, blackberry and herbal aromas. The palate is solid but a little sheering due to pointy acidity, and the flavor profile is pure toast and herbal black fruits. Lasting and varietally correct on the finish."

About Chile(CHEE-lay)Long and thin, Chile has a lot of land north to south. The wine region here is a series of districts based near Santiago. The vineyards are protected by the Pacific on the west and the Andes mountains on the east. This could help explain why the climate changes more from east to west than north to south – also why the country has remained phylloxera free. Quite a few wineries in Chile were founded by large French wine companies. Seeing the potential of the country, vineyards were bought and planted by these French folks and the results tell of a smart investment. Some of these wineries include: Los Vascos, Casa Lapostolle and Cousino Macul. And while the inspiration may have been French, but the wines here are quite Chilean.

Notable FactsThe main regions of Chile include Maipo (pronounced MY-poh), known for reds like Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Carmenere; Casablanca Valley, a region producing delicious Sauvignon Blanc, as well as other whites & some reds; Colchaugua, an inland district creating amazing red wines from Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, particularly in the Apalta sub-region; and Rapel Valley, settled right under Maipo and producing the same red varietals. A couple of smaller regions to watch include Limari and Elqui, two valleys further north, producing some delicious cool-climate Chardonnay and Bio Bio, an area further south, which is also focused on cool-climate varieties. Chilean wines are growing in exports and more consumers are enjoying the delicious values coming from the country. Red wines of the region, though they cannot be generalized, make the whole gamut of wine quality – quaffable to collectible. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot & Carmenere are the main players, though Syrah is also making a splash. Some of the best reds are blends of the above varieties. As for whites, Sauvignon Blanc is typically crisp, herbal and racy, while Chardonnay is richer in style with full-bodied texture and tropical fruit flavors.

I loved Jake's will to win, but I remember watching him show up his teammates on the field more than once, and that's something I've yet to see Cam do. It always bugged me when Jake would whine at one of the young guys for dropping a pass when we all knew he was going to throw up a few lame ducks or stand in a pass rush with ball by his waist at some point before the game was over Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We stayed here for two nights to visit Taroko Gorge. The setting is lovely, right in the mountains of Taroko Gorge, the views are amazing. The grounds of the village are well maintained and there are loads of butterflies in the gardens.
The rooms are wooden cabins. they are nice and spacious with all of the amenities of a hotel room. The price we paid included dinner, which was really good, a set menu of local food the first night and a buffet on the second, breakfast, which was also good and an afternoon tea wihich we could have when we wanted.
The staff were very nice and friendly. We booked at the evry last minute (from another hotel) and they arranged for us to be picked up from near by. Its a great place to visit the gorge from. They offer organised tours (a taxi driver that takes you on a set itinerary) we took one and it went very well. They also helped us organise our transport back to the station for an early train when we left. we were very pleased with or stay.
One thing which is a slight shame is that the shows put on b the staff to present the culture and traditions of the local people is only in chinese. We watched it anyway and still enjoyed it but it would have been nice to understand more. They do hand out a piece of paper in English with a few points to help out the people who don't speak chinese, but the show is obviously goes onto a lot more detail. We still enjoyed the music and dancing!

The visitors miss out on the chance to move six points clear in third, as Los Azulones continue their recent good form with an impressive comeback victory
Getafe came from behind to beat Valencia 3-1 at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez on Saturday night to leave Luis Garcia's side just a point away from sixth and a European position in the Liga table.
Roberto Soldado fired the visitors in front only five minutes into the match, but Pedro Rios levelled with an instinctive header soon after. Miku nodded home to put Geta ahead, and an own goal by Bruno Saltor added salt to Unai Emery's wounds.
It appeared that Los Che were set to bounce back after the disappointing showing against Zaragoza in midweek as they took the lead early on. Jonas drove forward, laying off to Soldado on the right-side of the box, and the striker let fly into the top corner of the goal.
It was an emphatic start, but on 12 minutes the hosts were back on level terms. Jaime Gavilan was released down the left, and he delivered a perfect cross for Rios to head past Vicente Guaita.
The hosts were looking comfortable, and the home support sensed the momentum swinging towards their side. They were nearly silenced by a Valencia attack however, when Soldado flicked the ball over the defender but his resulting shot was smothered by goalkeeper Miguel Angel Moya, who is on loan from his opponents.
After surviving the scare, Getafe found the lead on 24 minutes. Rios over-hit a cross from the right, which was rifled back into the mix by Gavilan, and Venezuelan international Miku was in the right place to nod home.
With half an hour gone, things got even better for Los Azulones. A free kick from the right was whipped in by Gavilan, and the ball deflected off defender Bruno and looped over Guaita, whose touch was not enough to prevent it going over the line.
Los Che needed a big performance to claw their way back into the game, and they asserted their dominance in the second half, but it was Getafe who looked the more threatening in front of goal on the counterattack.
Despite the possession, Valencia failed to produce anything of note. Jonas showed a flash of brilliance skipping into the box on 63 minutes, but his effort was caught with ease by Moya. Soon after, Soldado met a cross by Sofiane Feghouli but headed over with the goal at his mercy.
Los Che failed to find a way back into the game and not for the first time, they failed to capitalise after taking the lead. Emery's side have now dropped 20 points this season after being the first team to score.
Getafe, meanwhile, have won three of their last four league games as they move them temporarily into ninth place, only a point from a Europa League spot. Valencia remain in third but are now only three points ahead of Levante, who entertain Osasuna on Sunday.

Military and Veterans' Benefits:
Observations on the Transition Assistance Program
GAO-02-914T: Published: Jul 18, 2002. Publicly Released: Jul 18, 2002.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-7207
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Since its inception, the Transition Assistance Program has served more than one million separating and retiring military personnel through the coordinated efforts of the Departments of Defense, Transportation, Labor (DOL), and Veterans Affairs. In fiscal year 2001, the military branches and DOL spent $47.5 million to provide transition assistance to 222,000 separating and retiring service members. Although each branch provides required preparation counseling and offers transition assistance workshops to help service members transition to civilian life, not all eligible service members receive transition assistance. Because they have considerable flexibility in designing their programs, transition assistance varies in content and delivery across the military branches. In addition, service members experienced differences in access to transition assistance depending on their unique circumstances. Isolating the impact of transition assistance on employment, education, and other outcomes is difficult because of data inadequacies and methodological challenges.

Product Description
From School Library Journal
Grade 7 Up–A richly layered novel that contains elements of both fantasy and hard-edge realism. At night, 16-year-old Skey dreams of dark tunnels. During the day, she is usually aware of her surroundings, a facility for troubled teens where she has lived since a suicide attempt. But even awake, she can slip into the comforting tunnels that keep her mind safe and where she encounters a wandering boy much like herself. Because her recovery seems to be going so well, Skey begins to attend school during the day. There she hesitantly rejoins her gang of old friends, led by her boyfriend, Jigger. The teens are alluring and dangerous and seem to hold the key to the trauma that pushed Skey over the edge. The deep bonding of a first sexual relationship is exquisitely portrayed, even as Jigger's controlling behavior escalates toward violence. Readers will be held breathless as Skey begins to discover the truth about the gang and its terrible hold over her. Her journey is partly in the real world and partly through the tunnels, the dreams where losers go to find what they have lost. Through her growing friendship with the wandering boy, and the damaged classmate he so closely resembles, Skey ultimately summons the courage to save herself and her new friend. This portrayal of the inner lives of trauma survivors is accurate, respectful, and hopeful. A wise and compelling book that addresses the traumas of sexual assault and emotional betrayal.–Carolyn Lehman, Humboldt State University, Arcata, CA

In the book the beginning seems to drag with dream sequence. When I first read this book, I had a hard time trying to get into the book because of it. No matter how boring the first sequence is get through it because it gets better. I came to realize they were Skey's way of trying to understand the real world and her past memories. This is the most real book I've read can be very relatable to the readers.
I've been waiting since february for this book and I have to tell you this is the first time the book has been worth the wait. It's the best book I've read in a long time.
The book starts slowly with the dream sequences lastly much too long, in my opinion. However, the dreams are a central part of the story and help to weave reality and another world in both Skey and Lick's minds. The story is at times frightening, often depressing, and occasionally hopeful. Sex is not graphically written about but it is obvious it is taking place. Drugs and alcohol are evident. Mature readers will appreciate the sensitivity with which the story was written. Thanks to Puget Sound Council for this review copy.
